"Wow, if I was the leader of this person's company I would immediately terminate them." I love getting reader mail, but can no longer reply to everything. I read absolutely everything. You can reach me at: ludicity.hackernews@gmail.com. I will prioritize responding, in order, if: You live in Melbourne and want coffee. You want to invite me onto a podcast or something because the flames of my ego are a roaring inferno that needs constant feeding, to the dismay of all those around me. You are a student seeking advice. You are an unemployed engineer that shares my values who needs help, especially from marginalized communities. Podcast which is just me chatting with readers and friends. Mastodon because it's so much nicer than Twitter. Twitter which only exists so that I can comment on posts whenever I'm featured on a podcast, which is not a sentence I ever expected to type. Liberapay | Patreon to show support.
